What a deal!

Chris and Carol

The hyper-rare Zunow 35mm SLR from around 1958.

It’s available now on eBay.
The seller sent an offer.

All kidding aside, this is an extremely rare camera built by Zunow Optical in the late 1950s. Only a few production models made it into the marketplace. Mostly non-working examples exist today and few ever come up for sale.

The Yashica Pentamatic ’35’ looks a bit like it. The Pentamatic was released in early 1960 but was designed in 1959 as a joint venture with Nicca and Yashica’s designers.

Thanks for stopping by, Chris
